Okay, I thought I had plenty of space on my C drive as I had solved a previous problem (exports that reflected a previous version of the InDesign file) by deleting many, many files. So... this time I moved my CC folder to D drive which has 1 Terabyte free and, after a couple hours, the file reflected the current edits that had seemed to be lost forever... now I am operating fine. Lesson learned - I must retain HUGE expanses of open space to work.

Not sure if the re-set of app preferences played a role in the solution. By itself it did nothing, but I did it several times, including after moving the cc folder to drive D, so perhaps.
